Determine the work in kW.arrow_forwardA steady-flow, well-insulated turbine accepts steam at 4 MPa and 500°C with negligible kinetic and potential energy change, and exhausts at 100 kPa as saturated vapor. Calculate on a per-unit mass basis:(a) the actual work of the steam flowing through the turbine,(b) the entropy generation,(c) the quality x2s at the outlet if the process is reversible,(d) the maximum work output,(e) the isentropic efficiency. Assume the environment is at 100 kPa and 25°C.arrow_forwardLet's assume that we generate electrical energy by means of a turbine generator. Before the steam enters a reversible adiabatic turbine, it must be raised to 10000 kPa pressure and 450 ºC. As the steam leaves the turbine, its pressure drops to 150 kPa and a temperature of 100 C. The flow of steam in the turbine is 57 kg / s. In the meantime, your ambient temperature was measured as 25 ºC and pressure as 100 kPa. Considering these conditions, how much exergy does the steam have when entering and leaving the turbine? How much power does the turbine generate? How much power can be produced from this turbine and what is the second-law efficiency of this turbine? Calculate.arrow_forward

The mass flow rate of the R-134a through the compressor is 0.02 kg/s. Neglecting changes in kinetic energy, calculate the power required by the compressor and the temperature of the R-134a as it leaves the compressor. b) Suppose the compressor in part (a) has friction that generates entropy as the refrigerant flows through the compressor at a rate of 1.5 (J/K) /s. What power would be required by this compressor and what would be the temperature of the refrigerant as it leaves the compressor?arrow_forward
